Chapter 176

Time passed, and before he knew it, it was late at night.

In the office.

Zhang Gui had a welcome banquet with Zhang Rui and Lü Zhenduan.

It could be seen that Zhang Rui, who had lost his position and been demoted, felt genuinely much more relaxed.

He kept toasting Zhang Gui during the meal.

Finally, the three of them returned satisfied.

Zhang Gui settled Zhang Rui in the side room on the west side of the office, and drank some tea in his room.

He strolled out of the office gate.

He had 'stolen' so many people on the Heavenly Craft Nine Islands, causing various chain reactions.

But he had always been suppressed by Prince Zhen's 'traveling capital', and in the end, 'big things became small, and small things became nothing'.

In fact, it had long been within his expectations.

It was just because Zhang Gui had long seen through the so-called strategy of Prince Zhen's 'traveling capital' of 'casting cities, stationing troops, training troops, and driving the enemy outside the national gate'.

It was actually just a trick to constantly add fuel to the fire and roast his reputation high.

The so-called new army was the fuel for 'burning the fire'.

Whether it disappeared a little earlier or turned into ashes a little later made no difference at all.

Not to mention that those who disappeared early were no longer 'fuel', but 'waste' that had become a burden.

How could anyone investigate this deeply...

Passing through the national road, Zhang Gui walked alone toward the distant wilderness.

On the way, he mobilized the golden Qi and blood and Gang Qi in his body, stimulating the Zongheng technique, and his speed became faster and faster.

Finally, afterimages appeared in his movements, and he soon disappeared without a trace.

When he had only learned the four techniques of Zongheng Flying Kick Knight, Flowing Fire Fist, Wind-Seizing Hand, and Finger Crossbow Master.

Zhang Gui discovered that although the Zongheng technique had unified characteristics, agile movement.

But the Flying Kick Knight was as fast as a flying bee, leaving as soon as it touched;

The Flowing Fire Fist had amazing explosive power;

The Wind-Seizing Hand caught the wind and shadows, with continuous long-lasting power;

The Zongheng Finger Crossbow reached the extreme in one move, and each technique had its own characteristics.

And after learning all twenty-seven techniques of the "Zongheng Book", because the techniques were more characteristic when driven by golden Qi and blood and Qi Yuan, this feeling became even more obvious.

Later, as time passed, he slowly had new, deeper insights.

Actually, all the various Zongheng techniques return to the basics, fundamentally to achieve the two words 'Zongheng' in different ways.

Whether it's the speed of leaving as soon as it touches;

The amazing acceleration of the explosion;

The endurance of continuous long-lasting power;

The swiftness of reaching the extreme in one move...

All kinds of things can be summarized just to better achieve the extremely simple meaning of the word 'Zongheng' in the general explanation of supernatural powers:

Moving and defending against enemies from all directions, front, back, left, and right.

"Continuing to simplify and summarize deeply, it is actually 'fast' in terms of physical body!

Fast to a certain extent, stones will rub and melt, so the body itself must be 'sturdy';

Wanting to constantly accelerate, the various circulation speeds in the body must also keep up, so blood vessels, meridians, and even lymphatic tissues must be 'thoroughly connected';

When moving and changing directions, wanting to turn at will without slowing down...

Agile movement, at first glance, it's just fast, but in the end, the deepest level is still 'fast'!

I didn't see through this point before; it's no wonder that even if the technique was thorough, no Divine Cong could be born, and I always felt I was just one step away but could never take it."

Indulging in the joy of breaking the 'knowledge hindrance' all the way.

Zhang Gui came to a mass grave where the wind blew through withered grass and Yin energy was born.

Afterwards, he did not transform into a giant, but alone mobilized the main Divine Cong 'Tai Sui Enters Spirit' in his brain.

Instantly, black pulp seeped out from Zhang Gui's Lu Gate, flowing on the ground to become a bacterial mat, and derived a fine drizzle.

Afterwards, mushroom caps appeared on the bacterial mat, and Yin thunder as small as thumbs flashed in the rain, constantly seeping into the ground as Zhang Gui moved.

It was as gloomy as a demon lord descending into the world.

"The two Primordial Spirit cultivation methods of Mid-Spring and Awakening of Insects have also begun to affect 'Tai Sui Enters Spirit'.

This shows that with the continuous in-depth practice of powerful techniques, it can interact with the Divine Cong inherited in the bloodline.

Then even if the inherited bloodline power is the same and the degree of Divine Cong development is equivalent, the manifestation of power will still be vastly different."

Although Zhang Gui was happy in his heart because he discovered some new supernatural knowledge,

But because he circled around the mass grave, he gained nothing except the corpses thrown by his Hanli subordinates.

He couldn't help but smile and mutter in a low voice,

"These commoners of the vassal state are really lazy.

In the past, when someone died in the family, even if they were too poor to buy a thin coffin, they would wrap it in a straw mat themselves and bury it.

Now they are all thrown directly on the street, letting my 'office' solve it.

Completely giving no chance for any unexpected surprises..."

"Master Zhang, to say such things in such a scene, you are truly not a human son."

A clear voice suddenly sounded.

Zhang Gui was startled, cursing in his heart that in such a broken place not affected by his own divine authority, he was simply like a deaf and blind person, which was really unfriendly.

Fortunately, he could tell who the voice was, and it was not the same path as Master Yin, whom he was most wary of.

"Shen Zhexian, what are you saying?

As the saying goes, 'when a person dies, it's like a lamp blowing out', what is left is just a pile of flesh and bones.

Burying them in the soil to slowly rot is also a waste; it's better to let me send them off."

Saying this, Zhang Gui stopped operating the 'Tai Sui Enters Spirit' main Divine Cong and restored his normal image.

He took out a stack of exquisite paper money from his bosom, lit it, and sprinkled it into the air.

He put his hands together and muttered:

"You have all lived a life of hardship and it is difficult to cultivate for the next life.

Now you have given your corpses to me, and I have become stronger because of this, and then I will punish evil and promote good.

Exchanging for your blessings in the next life, it is exactly the cycle of cause and effect."

Shen Shijing, who descended from the sky in white clothes, heard this and asked faintly:

"Opening your mouth with blessings, closing your mouth with cause and effect, do you believe in the Buddha?"

"That's not really believing; I only believe in things that are beneficial to me."

"Longhu is really frank." Shen Shijing laughed dumbly:

"Then I don't know what you are doing by melting corpses and bones with strange arts?"

"This is hard to say."

"Longhu relied on my 'Hanli Shen Clan' favor to exchange with Prince Zhen..."

"Zhexian, wait; you appearing in the mass grave outside Hanseong-bu in the middle of the night, it can't be that you are bored and flying around in the sky for fun.

So don't tease me with clouds and mist anymore.

Might as well say directly, why did you come to find me so mysteriously?"

A crescent moon shone on the world above his head, and the cold wind gradually stopped.

Shen Shijing was silent for a while and said softly:

"Prince Zhen's 'traveling capital' is now divided into three forces.

The most powerful one, you can guess without me saying, is Master Yin and his junior sister Tao the Goddess, as well as the party attached to the two.

Mainly high-level generals of the new army who came from the Imperial Guard Huben.

The second force is mainly the staff of the Imperial Academy who followed Prince Zhen out of the capital.

The rest are the old Hanli people who gathered after Prince Zhen counterattacked Xianrong Island, including many of my Shen clan members.

The third force is the eunuchs and attendants who exist entirely attached to Prince Zhen.

Although these people don't look very conspicuous, they represent the will of the 'King' and cannot be underestimated.

And like you, me, and Lü Zhenduan, who was squeezed out of the staff force of the 'traveling capital' under your command, because of various reasons, have no reliance..."

"Wait, Shen Zhexian, you don't intend to pull together a fourth force in Prince Zhen's 'traveling capital', do you?"
